Me ? No, I am certainly coming. I'll adapt.
There are too many favorable properties of AZ, relative to CA, that I need.

I get it, you don't want to the Cali imports.
I already feel the same way even before I get there.

No I just get annoyed with obviously idiotic statements like “you can’t go outside for 100 days a year”

That’s obviously not true.

Keep a pair of oven mitts in your car to put on your hands so you can touch the steering wheel.

Of course, however, I never said that. I just said other idiotic stuff.

I came here last year when it was 122 outdoors, and I was like wow it does not feel all that bad.
As I walked above ground, to my air conditioned car parked underground.

Yes, we visited the Mayo Clinic over the summer, and I took a picture of my car's external temp reading.
Which of course could be over exaggerated, but that's what it said. I'd believe it was lower, as I was surprised to see that number, as it did not feel that hot. Of course, I really don't know what anything over 105 deg F feels like, having never experienced it before coming to AZ.

understandable, as 115 doesnt feel much better than 122, which, BTW, is the hottest temp ever in Phoenix..

oh and I was wrong...I found the pic and the metadata said it all.
It was actually in June 2016 and the temp in the picture said 121.

Senior moment.
